It might be better to resist posting my opinion on the topic, because I don't really want to start an argument about the Grammy Awards. However, I feel compelled to express my disappointment with Lady Gaga's tribute to David Bowie last night. To be honest, I never watch the Grammy Awards because, through the years, they have rarely recognized the bands that I like or the music that I listen to. However, I watched last night specifically because I knew that the Bowie tribute was going to take place. I have nothing against Lady Gaga. I thought that she did a great job with the National Anthem at the most recent Super Bowl. I also read her thoughts about David Bowie's death, and she obviously reveres him. (I saw on the news this morning, that just before Bowie's death, she got the image of Bowie's face from the "Aladdin Sane" album tattooed on her side...) I just thought that the arrangements of the chosen songs was poorly done, and frankly the entire performance reminded me of something resembling a "muzak/broadway show" presentation. I was also disappointed that they didn't take some time for a verbal tribute to, or retrospective of Bowie's career and influence. (ditto for Glenn Frey and B.B. King...) They skipped Natalie Cole and others all together! Anyway, the Grammy Awards continue to disappoint...
